AI Summary

This resolution designates the week of May 11 through May 17, 2025, as "National Police Week," honoring the critical role of law enforcement officers across federal, state, local, and tribal levels. The resolution recognizes that police officers serve with valor, dignity, and integrity, swearing an oath to uphold public trust and pursue justice while protecting constitutional and civil rights. Drawing from a 1962 Presidential joint resolution that established Peace Officers Memorial Day on May 15th, this resolution specifically pays tribute to the 234 law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty during 2024, as well as the additional 18 officers reported killed in 2025 according to the FBI's Law Enforcement Officers Killed and Assaulted (LEOKA) Program. The resolution expresses unwavering support for law enforcement, acknowledges the need to provide officers with proper equipment and training, and encourages Americans to observe National Police Week by honoring these public servants and raising awareness about their essential community service. Furthermore, the resolution offers condolences to the families of officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice while serving and protecting their communities.
